What do you do when you are bored from games?
The Blackangel replied to AndreiMirfi's topic in Gaming Forum
I taught myself HTML when I was about 16. I used to have a website that I built strictly with HTML, and a touch of prewritten JavaScript. It looked really professional for the time frame. As for the JS, I can’t write my own, but I can usually manipulate a prewritten code to fit my needs. I also ran a fairly popular forum, and had a guestbook with a few hundred comments. It was a fairly big and popular site for several years, and actually won a lot of awards. -
The sale ended a week ago.

If you’re into fantasy, you should read Knight’s Wyrd. It’s my favorite fantasy book, and I’ve read a lot of them. You can get a copy of it on eBay for like $4 or $5 with free shipping most of the time. -
Originality is unfortunately a thing of the past. No one has the balls to make anything unique. The last time I saw any kind of truly unique games was somewhere between SNES and N64. NES however was the heyday of unique games. Marble Madness, A Boy And His Blob, Castlevania, Mega Man, Battletoads, Street Fighter 2010, and so on. Now everything is a damn carbon copy of something. Developers see success with a title that debuted 2 systems ago, and they keep puking up sequels to it. It’s one of the reasons why I’m a classic gamer. There’s nothing new anymore. It’s just a slightly altered package with a word or two changed.

No official release date has been announced, but it looked promising. Most likely a DDL only. But @Shagger is right. It’s one of only 3 games to get an AO rating. The other two were Manhunt 2, and Thrill Kill. But Thrill Kill was never officially released. There are bootlegs of it all over, but it was scrapped just before launch.

I’ve been seeing articles and reports saying that Hatred is going to be released on Switch some time this year. Has anyone else seen this? At the moment the only place to get the game is on Steam. I have it there, but if I could get it portable, I would love it. I’m hoping these reports aren’t bunk, but I’m not sure whether I should put any hope in this.

I stick mainly to NBC. Their news is always credible and relevant.

What would you like to see added to the forum?
The Blackangel replied to DC's topic in Questions & Suggestions
Something that may help could be to post a thread, you would probably have to put in its own locked category, of do’s and don’ts when signing up. Tell people that if they want a good experience here that they need to hold off trying to sell their shit until at least their second post. May be a crackpot idea, but it’s a thought. -

@DC made a choice today, and it was a good one. Hopefully the one extra mod is all the forum will need. But as @Crazycrab said, there are several of us willing to lend a hand if we’re needed. -
BOOMBS AWAAAAAYYY!! wait what? Bombs here? SHIT! I screwed up! er, um.... Welcome bomb!😁

I’ve always liked Law & Order SVU. But the reason why I’m not likely to watch Suits, is because I just don’t ever think to try to catch it. As far as TV shows go, it’s one if the furthest from my mind. The closest I really come to watching TV anymore is almost entirely YouTube. If it wasn’t for DVD’s and console gaming, I would have no real use for a TV at this point.

My city passed an ordinance a few weeks ago that requires masks in public settings. As for the rest of the state, not so much. Given the times however, I personally think masks should be required in public. But there’s a lot who will disagree

Michelle 2020 - YES WE CAN!!!!
The Blackangel replied to The Blackangel's topic in Debate, Politics, & Religion
I do. And it’s the republiklans that are supporting it. They are the ones blaming it all on blacks and refusing to take responsibility for their actions. Meanwhile Democrats are trying to get politicians in office who don’t have their heads in their asses and Putin’s dick in their mouths in order to combat the racial inequities that republiklans cherish so much. The saddest thing about you personally, is that you’re actually stupid enough to believe your own hype. -
I have to agree. The rate of increase in spam posts is staggering. We all know you bust your ass to take care of this forum, and we do appreciate it. It may seem thankless or go unmentioned at times, but we all do. But like @Shagger said, you’re just one man. I would honestly recommend picking two that you feel you could trust not to abuse the authority and give it a trial run for a week or two at least. Then go from there. With 3 staff the amount of spam could be handled quicker and it would take some of the load off your shoulders.

Even better would be if the right would all just put a bullet in their own heads. Then we wouldn't have to worry about you completely fucking up the country anymore. -
Being an Xbox 360, I don't think there's any possible chance it's still under any kind of warranty, unless he bought it from a gaming retailer that offers warranties on everything they sell. But to my knowledge, no such store exists for older systems. But to get back to topic, it sounds like a system issue. If you're resetting your password every time you want to log in, then you need a new console. The only way I can think of that could work to transfer your save data would be a thumb drive, but I don't know enough about Xbox to know if that's even viable. I mentioned this in another post, but a few years ago I read several online reports that said the 360 almost took Xbox out of the gaming market and ended it completely. The RRoD was a major factor in that. But they brought out the Xbox One and saved their own asses. I'm not a fan of Xbox, but the One is a great system none the less.

Trump banned TikTok and WeChat. Are video games next?
The Blackangel replied to Kane99's topic in Gaming News
Covid is not a biological weapon. You missed my point entirely when I said irrelevant. What i said was they are going to do it. Whether they go to war to take over, or do it peacefully through negotiations doesn't matter. They will still take over. What you're doing is romanticizing the entire situation and comparing it to Nazi Germany. The US may ally itself to other nations, but it's none of our fucking business to get involved. I seem to remember a situation that was similar to this. What was it called.... OH! Yes, it was called THE VIETNAM FUCKING WAR. None of our business. We got involved with something that inevitably didn't make any difference for our involvement. @skyfire Maybe you should be a US citizen before you start lecturing one on US politics. -

Props from another classic gamer. My first system was a Colecovisiob. I didn’t appreciate it at the time, and now wish I had. Today however, I play Atari 2600, NES, SNES, and N64 almost exclusively. I do play on my Switch a lot, but the majority of games on it are 8-16 bit games. I have Zelda Links Awakening, but to be honest with you, I greatly prefer it on Game Boy over the remaster on Switch. I have a good amount if PS1-4 games, but a lot of them have never seen the inside of a PlayStation. I have nothing against the new stuff, but I have to have my old stuff. And before you ask, none of it is any of that flashback bullshit. -
AKA for us old geezers that are past the expiration date printed on our asses, PS12.
-
It seems on that one that if you're not fluent in Japanese that you're going to miss half the game.
-
How many people are going to be laughing when their grandchildren are playing the PS12 and seeing the PS5 as "stone age primitive"?

HP Computers - What do you think about them as a company?
The Blackangel replied to DudeThatsErin's topic in PC
HP is a horrible choice for gaming, unless you're playing old stuff like AOE that doesn't take a lot of power to run. If that's your goal for PC gaming, then you're good to go with an HP. But if you're wanting to do any of the current (and mostly online) stuff, then you're a bit nuts to go HP on that. But for things other than gaming, HP's are great computers. I'm an amateur author, and write on mine all the time. I've finished 2 full length novels, 3 short stories, and a lot of unconventional poetry. And I have a whole list of other things I'm going to write in the future. I'm in the works of writing another book as we speak. -

Tibet has always been an issue with the Chinese government. They have claimed Tibet as theirs for as long as I can remember. Probably since before I was even born. While at the same time, Tibet has claimed independence from China. I think it was a soccer game a couple years ago that China banned because in the countries it listed Tibet as a completely independent nation. The Chinese government wants to dominate the entire south east part of Asia and Oceania. And I don't see them giving up until they achieve that goal, whether it be through peaceful annexation or war is irrelevant.
